The religious Hebrew tassel, however, bears little resemblance to the decorative one which eventually became popular in Europe, especially France.\u003cbr\u003e\nIn the West, tassels were originally a series of windings of thread or string around a suspending string until the desired curvature was attained. Later, turned wooden moulds, which were either covered in simple wrappings or much more elaborate coverings called satinings, were used. This involved an intricate binding of bands of filament silk vertically around the mould by means of an internal \"lacing\" in the bore of the mould.\u003cbr\u003e\nIn the Middle East, tassels were worn as talismans, especially on headwear. In Egypt, Mesopotamia, and throughout the Arab world tassels were worn by children on hoods or caps to protect them from malevolent spirits and ward off demons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese are special decorative kuchi tribal Tassel.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe listing is for 6 Real Cowry Shell tassels all handmade.\u003cbr\u003e\nBeautiful black and turquoise beads are used with black cotton thread strings and a real Cowry Shell is attached at the end of each string.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe hook or bail of the tassel is wind with golden thread.\u003cbr\u003e\nThere are multiple uses of tassels all depending on what you are planning to do with them.\u003cbr\u003e\nYou can use them in making jewelry, keychains, attach to any pull strings for fans lights etc., or bags and purses or to decorate cushions curtains etc. etc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe length of the tassel is 2.5 inches including the hook or hanger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTHE GIVEN PRICE IS FOR 6 TASSELS.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese are made by the Afghan women who are living in the refugee camp on the border of Pakistan and Afghanistan to support their families.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePlease allow room for some minor imperfection as it's all handmade.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"beyondfindings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":35567822209175,"sku":null,"price":27.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0457\/2233\/7431\/products\/il_fullxfull.1365452803_frmm.jpg?v=1692818357","url":"https:\/\/subliminalgems.com\/products\/6-cowrie-shell-tassels-beautiful-cowry-shell-jewelry-tassels-costume-designing-mini-conch-tassels-diy-dresses-bag-cushions-necklace-bracelet","provider":"Subliminal Gems ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
